After my teacher just told us to get used to it and practice and "feel it" I searched all over the internet for a systematic approach to simplifying. After a loooong time I stumbled upon this video and I couldn't be more grateful, I finally understand how to think about it and know how to start approaching the problems. Thank you!
Wow, this video really needs more views. This is the best most comprehensive video for boolean algebra on TH-cam. Thanks for the upload, it helped me a ton.
Great video, the most concise and compact Boolean Algebra video I've found so far. It made me think I can actually do well on my midterm tomorrow! Many thanks.
I appreciated the actual justifications for the mathematical expressions such as 13:48, when you explained why the outcome will always be 1. Great work, professor.
This is a fantastic video explaining Boolean Algebra. While my lecturer goes through the processes, we are a little rushed for time due to how much we need to go through. Watching this and your other videos allows me to take my time and do it at my own pace, since this is completely new to me. Thank you for being so patient and taking the time to go in detail sir, the videos are certainly appreciated!
My professor didn't prove anything about Boolean Identities, and the slight differences from what I know of "normal" identities confused me. Thank you SO SO much for this lecture and for including practice problems. You are the bomb dot com!!! :)
This was so helpful. I mostly understood logic gates and truth tables fine, but my professor taught boolean simplification like complete trash. He just threw a ton of theorems at us and never really described how to approach the problems with any real methodology like you do. Thanks for the help!
Hi, I know it's a long time ago, but I'm having a blast listening to your tutorials on Algebra. On this video (05 Digital Electronics -- Boolean Algebra and Simplification) @ 14:30 I have a solution that I wanted you to look up... I made: ... A+B+AC+AB= A+AC+B+AB= (Commutative) A+AC+B+BA= (Commutative) A(1+C)+B(1+A)= (Pulled a 1 on both) A(1)+B(1)= (Dual) A+B (Identity) ... I guess it's the same, correct me if I'm wrong though your's is a little simpler! Thanks so much!
Thanks for this great video!! I couldn't find anything that actually gave a good explanation on each individual law! You're the reason I'm gonna pass my exam!
Thank you very much... I have a quiz the next day and now I understand without reading the book(Because it's boring or I guess I'm more comfortable when someone is teaching me)!
Thx a lot ... I am studying electrical and instrumentation engineering and I wasn't able to understand this in the class thanks to u ... you made this easy for me
I don't usually comment but damn! This was very helpful, keep it up! My teacher is so unorganized that I have no idea where she pull all these 0 and 1 from.
Thank you Sir for this amazing video. Even after I received a lecture on this and after reading about it online, I still didn't understand a thing, but after watching this video, everything finally made sense. You Sir are my Hero :)
Thank you so much for this video! I've been getting Fs on my homework and quizzes over boolean algebra for the past week. I have a test over this coming up and I feel like i'll be able to pass it after watching your video.
Your videos are awesome! Thank you for this. I am enjoying learning from you! I start a class on digital logic in a week and this will give me a head start for sure!
🤔 @ time 12:01 if i apply the order of operations will that be enough to solve Boolean equations? Multiply first,than add unless there addition in parentheses
james tomlin No it is just inverted. Now if you have a bar over 2 variables that are ANDed you would stick those in parentheses once you break the line.
at time 13:07 when u opened parentheses, did u take an A from the first part of the equation where the A is by its self? or were u able use the rule A+1=1
At about time 2:28 can that equation be distributed to be AA+AC+BA+BC and than use the rules that u went over later to solve that equation so it can equal A+BC?
No I just pulled an A from AC. You are technically left with a 1C, but it is just easier to say C. Same with the AB. Pull an A and you have B remaining.
I am guessing you are talking about A+B? If you OR A and B together, any high gives you a high out. Since both A and B are zero for the top 2, you would have a zero out. I hope that helps.
MovieHQ wait, what?! I live in lexingotn, Im taking this class at UK (EE280) my teacher doesn't teach us anything and I I'm having a really hard time learning this. Could you help me?
There is a confusion in the practice problem that you gave in the last part. Its might be the typo error in ppt presentation but this video helped me alot. Thanks! 👍
How would you give the minimized function in SP form for, say if you had: f(a, b, c, d, e) = { min (0, 2, 8, 9, 10, 11, 25, 27, 29, 31) Is there some quick way of doing it or do you have to draw K-maps? your videos are awesome, given me more insight than actual lectures, by far!
Thanks for watching. I can honestly say I do not work out problems in that format so I am not sure how they work. Those look like they might come from a computer science course or engineering course. My course is based on more practical skills.
I'm pretty sure you have to use k-maps, or if you had the function you could simplify it using algebra. But just given the minterms like that, you would have to do a k-map.
Hello, as a beginner in digital electronics, in what order would you propose me to watch videos in this series "Digital Electronics"? Thanks in advance for your help,
Great video again ! Just one thing at the minute 24:38 in your last practice exercise you wrote A not + B + C + A not B + C, while in the answers you used the same example but with a not on the B. It's the same procedure and everything but I just wanted to make you know >.< thanks a lot , I would really want that you were my teacher too :)
After my teacher just told us to get used to it and practice and "feel it" I searched all over the internet for a systematic approach to simplifying. After a loooong time I stumbled upon this video and I couldn't be more grateful, I finally understand how to think about it and know how to start approaching the problems. Thank you!
Great!! Glad I could be of help.
You saved me from reading boring slides and even gave me exercises. Thank you.
You are welcome.
I have an exam coming up and you've taught me in half an hour what my lecturer couldn't do for half a year!
Thanks! That is the reason I did them. Good luck on the exam!
+1. I was banging my head against the wall all day trying to understand, and this video got me to understand in 10 minutes.
Thank you. you are a savior
Why am I paying 24k per year to have slides recited to me when I could get a better education in half the time for free on youtube...
The Jamaican Information System major says "THANK YOU VERY MUCH!"..You just earned a new subscriber
+Amonikki White Thank you for the sub and the watch!
Wow, this video really needs more views. This is the best most comprehensive video for boolean algebra on TH-cam. Thanks for the upload, it helped me a ton.
I really appreciate the support!
I'm 38, back in college and totally lost. Thanks for helping this make sense! Starting today you're my new prof/tutor. I've subscribed. Cheers
You are welcome. Now if I covered every topic you will have!! Good luck back in school.
***** Best of luck to you as well. Makes me feel good to know that other teachers are taking advantage of the videos. I appreciate that.
Wow! Your comment is why I teach in the first place. I appreciate it.
These videos have been very helpful. Long distance learning can be a challenge and these just helped with the missing gaps. Thank you
Tumi Mokoena Glad to help and thanks for watching.

Glad I could help.
Thank god I found this video.
Thanks to you sir and for every good video lecturer, I can keep my scholarship and feed my family.
We owe you so much.
Great video man, you saved my ass. Literally every other tutorial on the net plays out like Dwarf Fortress, this really cleared a lot up.
Great to hear it. I had to look up dwarf fortress. Looks to be a great pain in the butt to play.
Boy am I glad i found this channel. Thank you SIR!
Glad I could be of help!
Hi, I know it's a long time ago, but I'm having a blast listening to your tutorials on Algebra.
On this video (05 Digital Electronics -- Boolean Algebra and Simplification) @ 14:30
I have a solution that I wanted you to look up... I made:
...
A+B+AC+AB=
A+AC+B+AB= (Commutative)
A+AC+B+BA= (Commutative)
A(1+C)+B(1+A)= (Pulled a 1 on both)
A(1)+B(1)= (Dual)
A+B (Identity)
...
I guess it's the same, correct me if I'm wrong though your's is a little simpler!
Thanks so much!
Yep. Works the same as mine. Just has a few more steps but works in the end. Thanks for watching!!
I appreciate your time explaining this. I was reading it in my book, but it made so much more sense seeing you go through it. Thank you!
+Phillip Hansen Thanks for watching.
Thanks for this great video!! I couldn't find anything that actually gave a good explanation on each individual law! You're the reason I'm gonna pass my exam!
Thank you very much. Good luck on the exam!!
i really like when people take the time to make such informative videos, very well done. i hope it helped a lot others; just like it really helped me!
Thank you very much... I have a quiz the next day and now I understand without reading the book(Because it's boring or I guess I'm more comfortable when someone is teaching me)!
You are the best. I was totally clueless and this clarified everything ! Thank you !
Thank you!!
Thx a lot ... I am studying electrical and instrumentation engineering and I wasn't able to understand this in the class thanks to u ... you made this easy for me
+Jawad Ullah Glad to hear that. Good luck with the rest of your class.
Wow you are a genius in teaching. I studied this in the class and learned nothing. luckily I found this. Thank you so much.
Thanks!
Great videos to supplement my studies at college! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
I don't usually comment but damn! This was very helpful, keep it up! My teacher is so unorganized that I have no idea where she pull all these 0 and 1 from.
+Son Quang I am very glad they helped and thanks for the comment. Just know, comments really make it worthwhile.
thank you this was more helpful then the last 2 months in class
Thanks for watching.

Great video, extremely helpful - especially the practice problems. Thank you for taking the time to make it and help out college students like myself.
+oceangust Glad to help and thanks for watching!!
i love this youtube channel. duuuude ur the man!!! the video was amazing and easy to follow
thank you bro.. was frustrating a lot about this until you showed up... Nice explanation... Keep it up !!!!
Thanks for watching!!!
Thanks, I kinda got this from lectures and other videos, but this cleared up a lot of confusion. Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
thanks!! My textbook is arcane and only after watching your vids can I read and understand :)
+Steven Garcia Thanks for watching.
This video is gonna give me my B.Sc.
Thank you so much! :)
This is the very best channel ever
Thanks!
Your better than my Digital Logics Teacher.
Thank you.
Thank God! I'm in High School and this helped me out a ton on the quiz:)
Glad it helped. Good luck with the rest of your class!
Appreciate the helpful video. The multiple examples really made things click.
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for saving us from tomorrow's EXAM :D
Thanks alot
OBalfaqih Glad it helped. And thanks for watching.
Studying for final exam from ur video , U're legend . THANK U
Greatly appreciated. Good luck on the exams!!
unbelievable how easy it is! I wish my professor was like you.
+Farbod Ziaee Thank you very much.
@ 12:21 or 12:22 the example AB+C will it be wise to just take the B, C variables and put them together as an OR function and work that first? 🤔
You cannot simplify this one. I was just showing you how you would find the output and the order to get them done correctly.
thank you very much...you are really a gifted teacher.
+mily habte (saba) Thank you very much!
Wow the light just came on! Your a genius!
Thank you.
OMG! Helped me a lot! It was my teacher who referred your video though. lol
Great. Glad to know I am helping you and your teacher.. :)
Man, u are really an awesome person, u taught me more than anyone could do. GOD BLESS U💗💗💗💗
Thanks!
Definitely helpful for my Digital Electronics homework. Thank you!
+SOFAR And thank you for watching.
Wonderful, I am closing the gap left by my lecturer!
+iCharo Thanks for watching.
Thank God for this video
Thanks Video helped out! I understand it much better... was lost in class..
No problem. Thanks!
Your videos are awesome! Thank you for this. I am enjoying learning from you! I start a class on digital logic in a week and this will give me a head start for sure!
Thanks for watching!! Good luck with the class.
thank you so much. I appreciate it. You are better than my teacher for real. :)
Thanks!
Watching all the videos in the playlist. This is great stuff. Don't forget to check the comments for the lecture notes.
+Daniel Mckissick Jr thank you!!
🤔 @ time 12:01 if i apply the order of operations will that be enough to solve Boolean equations?
Multiply first,than add unless there addition in parentheses
Pretty much. Always do the stuff in parenthesis this AND then OR.
If there is a Bar over one variable, is that still considered as parentheses?
james tomlin No it is just inverted. Now if you have a bar over 2 variables that are ANDed you would stick those in parentheses once you break the line.
at time 13:07 when u opened parentheses, did u take an A from the first part of the equation where the A is by its self? or were u able use the rule A+1=1
Yes, i pulled the A from the A and left a 1.
got a better understanding because of this! thank you so much
+lingzy121 You are welcome. Thanks for watching.
At time 13:09 which rules shows A from an A is 1?
i didn't see that rule at the beginning of the video...
Look at 6:30 and I talk about it
Okay... Thanks for the clarification 😌
i was distracted by school work...
Thanks a ton! Mighty helpful and very easily explained!
+Saif Ahmed Thank you!
At about time 2:28 can that equation be distributed to be AA+AC+BA+BC and than use the rules that u went over later to solve that equation so it can equal A+BC?
Yes. I usually use FOIL first then simplify from there. Easier than remembering this specific rule.
@@MovieHQ it took me about 3 years of watching this video to understand that rule
Thank You SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Much. Without this I would be doomed for the test today! Thanks. Liked and Subed!
Great. Thanks!
Thank you for this easy to understand tutorial!
+Hafiz Haron You are welcome. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so so much. I have exam tomorrow AND this video is super helpful. Outstanding explanation (Y) Thanks again
+Sarim Javaid thank you
No thank you :'D LOL.. right now I am watching your video of Karnaugh Maps
Thnanks a lot for making this video good bless you sir. love From India
Thanks!! I seem to have many views from India.
Now at time 13:14 did u multiply the AC after that first or function and got C? (What rule was that?)
No I just pulled an A from AC. You are technically left with a 1C, but it is just easier to say C. Same with the AB. Pull an A and you have B remaining.
Omg man u realy dont know how much did u helped me now :)
6campeer9 Glad to help!
Really good way of teaching, thank you.
Appriciate it.
This video actually saved me. Thank you!
You are welcome!
Very simple and well explained.
Thanks for watching!
Wow. Helped me so much with Computer Science A-Level :D
Thanks!
Thanks a lott.. itz informative and perfect... nothing can be better than this... Awesome....
Great. Thanks for the comment!
Very helpful for every technical student.thankss bro
Glad to help!
Thanks Man, your explanation is very good and helped me understand
+Ekramul Patwary (Rakib) Thanks for watching!
At time 12:17 if the equation has parentheses and a bar at the same time, can it be solved the same way?
Yes. Just do things in the parentheses first. Then you will either factor stuff out or distribute things in.
Really, really, really, really helpful. Thanks :)
thank you ! that was really good tutorial, totally worth watching, have a wonderful day !
Man U R MY SAVIOUR!!!
I appreciate it. And thanks for watching!
and replying to your comment while watching another one of your videos.. keep up the good work..it helps the E-Learners a lot.... :)
At 16:05 why doesn't the second group down produce an output of 1?
I am guessing you are talking about A+B? If you OR A and B together, any high gives you a high out. Since both A and B are zero for the top 2, you would have a zero out. I hope that helps.
Yes, thank you!
thanks a lot man....u should be our teacher :)

Well move to Kentucky and I can be.. I appreciate it.

Arthur Silveira Unfortunately, I cannot do any tutoring. If you have some questions though I will see if I can help you out.
You are the man! Thanks very much, that video helped me a lot!
Thanks!!
I love you man.
There is a confusion in the practice problem that you gave in the last part. Its might be the typo error in ppt presentation but this video helped me alot. Thanks! 👍
+yelsewcrem yu Thanks for watching. I put a note over any changes I had to make (only one).
Currently watching for my test in digital fundamentals. Hopefully this helps. ;)
Best of luck on the test.
You are just amazing!!!!!!!!! clear explanation
Thank you!
How would you give the minimized function in SP form for, say if you had:
f(a, b, c, d, e) = { min (0, 2, 8, 9, 10, 11, 25, 27, 29, 31)

youre a good teacher i love u
Thanks!!!
You are the best sir, love it. thank you so much for doing this.
yosef beyne Thank you.
🤔 at time 13:10 u added A+A and got 1 because it's an OR gate?
I did not do A+A, I pulled an A FROM an A which leaves a 1.
Hello, as a beginner in digital electronics, in what order would you propose me to watch videos in this series "Digital Electronics"?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Mohsen Namakian I have a playlist that goes in the correct order. th-cam.com/play/PLiivzYNnIS6FIUtKiG5-R3L8Sbx_jRv6B.html

Thanks so much, my horrible teacher skipped half of this and just started doing problems
+mk mees No, Thank you for watching. Glad I could help.
Very nicely explained, ありがとうございます。
+Carlos Martinez Glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
@23:39 AB' + AB' those two is equal to 1 ? 🤔
No, that would fall under anything ORed with itself is itself so AB'
Thank you sir for the help, i will be back for more explanation.
Anytime.
Cheers man, you've helped me a bunch
Jake Hedges Glad to help and thanks for watching.
Thank you soooo so much! I finally understand this!
+Roberto Villagran Great!! Thanks for watching!
Great video again ! Just one thing at the minute 24:38 in your last practice exercise you wrote A not + B + C + A not B + C, while in the answers you used the same example but with a not on the B. It's the same procedure and everything but I just wanted to make you know >.< thanks a lot , I would really want that you were my teacher too :)
Thanks for letting me know. I have added a note in that location now.
Btw, thanks for the video u r saving my life.
